The Jenzabar Foundation finds and rewards student leadership that is committed to humanitarian efforts
The Foundation gives student groups the opportunity for financial support as they take on humanitarian projects. The Foundation proactively reaches out to colleges and universities to find and fund the student projects that are a match. Also, colleges and universities are encouraged to submit proposals for student projects they deem worthy of The Foundation’s support.
In addition to financially supporting student-led servcice projects, The Jenzabar Foundation raises awareness about the positive impact students can have on the lives of the others, and helps celebrate and promote student leaders who make a difference in the world
The Jenzabar Foundation provides the platforms and the latest technology to showcase the student projects to the world. From Web sites to social networking spaces, video clips, and other means of online communication, the Foundation will raise awareness of its grant recipients and their good works.
The Jenzabar Foundation actively seeks innovative student community service projects that may need additional financial or organizational assistance to become a reality
The leaders of The Jenzabar Foundation can help consult with colleges and universities to help identify student projects that would qualify for and need Foundation support to happen.
The Jenzabar Foundation helps colleges and universities by providing supplemental financial resources for valuable student efforts that enhance the lives of the students and those whom they serve
Many student projects would not move forward without financial backing. The Jenzabar Foundation is proud to be a partner to finance the projects that profoundly change the lives of the students as well as those whom they are helping.
The Jenzabar Foundation recognizes the key role that technology can play in realizing its mission as well as the missions of institutions of higher education and similarly aligned non-profit organizations
The Foundation’s grant-making is not restricted to funding student activities and social welfare initiatives. The Foundation also considers grant proposals that address the needs of higher education institutions and other non-profit entities to adopt new technology.
It is the dream of the founders of The Jenzabar Foundation and Jenzabar, Inc., that their support of humanitarian causes will exponentially create good works and goodwill that will continue for generations.
